Best practices to slide/align engine? Where to get leverage
Not to ask a dumb question, but after I get the motor mounts in (bolts kept loose) , exhaust headers on, C-beam plates in, to move the motor left and right, what is best way to do this? I figure just a well placed leverage bar/pry bar but lots can go wrong leveraging the engine in the wrong place...any advice to best way to slide engine..I figure keep 1/4 in of support with jack under oil pan. Thanks in advance.
